Full Panoramic View - The Montech X3's front and side panels are made of full Panoramic Tempered Glass, allowing you to show off your battle system and RGB lighting.
More Convenient, More Secure - The unique Side Swivel Tempered Glass Side Panel design not only makes it easier for users to remove the panel, but the zero drill-hole design also improves the panel's strength and security.

Questions & Answers

I'm not sure where the led sw connector should be plugged in. I'm using an A320m. It's called pro max, and it tells you how to control the led power /-. hddresetand power are two words that come to mind when thinking about hddresetand ?

The LEDs it refers to are the HDD activity LED and the system power LED, and they will plug into the front panel control pins on your motherboard, not the RGB fans lighting. The main power switch and the computer's reset switch are connected to the other leads. In this case, the fans aren't addressable or controllable. They'll only go through the motions in a specific order.

Is it possible to turn off the fan's lights?

Yes, the fan's lights can be turned off.

Is it possible to use a Cool Master 212 evo CPU cooler in this case?

Without a doubt. There's plenty of room.

Is it 5V or 12V for the RGB fans?

The case is nice, but the fans are junk, so don't worry about it; I'm sure you'll replace it with something better soon after you buy it. I ran the fans for a few weeks before hearing them squeak, and unfortunately, they don't move enough air at the rate they spin, so they were tossed in the recycle bin.

This is the worst case scenario I've ever encountered
3/5

Do not be fooled by the positive feedback. The case is broken and will not turn on. I've given up after ten emails back and forth with the company. They repeatedly asked the same questions, and I complied with each one, but nothing happened. I will never purchase from them again, and neither should you. I'll have to eat the money and order a new case because of the poor quality of the case and the poor quality of the customer service. It's made worse by the fact that I ordered two and they were both defective.

Excellent value for money with fans included
5/5

This case is unbeatable in terms of value. While the metal isn't as thick as some, it will hold the pieces together. The side window is a lightly tinted tempered glass that spans almost the entire length of the vehicle, which is unusual for a vehicle in this price range. This was my first build in a long time, and I believe my previous build was a P4 1. 2ghz. I liked that this case came with four fans, albeit with four pin molex connectors, which helped me save money. Fans can easily be upgraded when funds allow. br>br>I feel compelled to point out that their customer service is unrivaled. There was a problem with my power switch. I requested a new switch, but they surprised me by sending a brand new case. Montech cases are something I'll keep using and highly recommend. Likes: br>br>Likes: br>br>Likes: br>br>L Dislikes: Tempered glass side window, four included static RGB fans, enough space to hold larger GPUs, space for a total of six fansbr>br>Benefits: The included fans have molex connectors, so they are not controlled by the motherboard; cable management is tight but still manageable; and the metal is thinner than I expected, so be careful when installing parts.

Customer service is poor, and the case is made of very thin metal
3/5

There isn't a lot of space for cable management, either. It was challenging to get everything to fit together. The entire case has a shabby appearance to it. I intended to give it back. The company, on the other hand, demanded that I pay for the return shipping. It will cost half as much to return the case. I'm going to keep it and sell it on my own. That strikes me as poor customer service; any other item I've ever returned on Amazon has always been shipped free of charge. So I'm giving Montech a one-star rating because of their poor quality and poor customer service, and I won't be buying from them again. If I were you, I'd either look for something else or spend $10-$20. Spend an extra $20 and you'll get a better product.

I've never seen a more affordable case
5/5

For more than 30 years, I've been building computers. I've worked as a computer technician for a number of years, though I've moved away from the hardware side. Now that I'm a software developer, I've always maintained my own personal systems. For a couple of my clients, I've also done some hardware work. Having said that, this is the best "low-budget" case I've ever worked on. Advantages: br>br>
- Excellent value for money, ideal for a budget build or one where you don't want to spend a lot of money on the case and fans.
- Because the edges are well buffed, I have no concerns about slicing up my fingers while moving cables around. br>- Pre-installed are four fans. installed (always a plus when you're on a budget)br>- The case is well-ventilated and has plenty of airflowbr>- There's enough room to manage cables. It could be a little better, but it's not bad if you have a modular or semi-modular system. Power supply that is modular.
- Cables can be tucked away through multiple slits.
- It looks great both on and off.
- The power supply is well hidden and tucked away. br>br>Contrary to popular belief, there are a number of disadvantages to using this product.
- There is no motherboard control because the fans are connected via a daisy chain molex cable.
- SATA slots 3 are available on my motherboard. The placement of the management holes (shown in one of the photos with a yellow arrow) has effectively blocked 4 of them. This should only be a problem with ATX-sized motherboards, and only in exceptional circumstances.
- Because the case is made of thin metal, dings are possible. My car had two dings on the side panel, but they should be hidden the majority of the time.

It's a great deal, but I'm not interested in it
3/5

I really wanted this case to work, but there were a couple of flaws in it. br>br>The first is a toss-up; the sata ports on the motherboard I have (B450 AORUS M) are next to an elevated portion of the case, making fitting the sata cables difficult; I had to use the cables provided by AORUS because the heads/tips of the cables were small enough to fit, as seen in the photo I provided. The second issue is that the pcie openings in the back of the case are too small to accommodate my Display Port cable to my GPU port; the GPU is fully inserted into the slot, but the cable is not fully inserted as shown in the photos; my cable has latches, so I won't have to worry about this exact scenario. I thought I'd gotten it to fit, but the graphics card popped out. br>br>I gave this product a 3 because of my personal experience, but I do see its value; the price, as well as the design and airflow aspects, drew my attention; RBG fans are really cool, but the noise is too loud for me since I was spoiled by noctua. br>br>It's a great beginner case, but it's not for me.

For $60, this is a fantastic case
5/5

Hello, I just want to say that this is one of the best-made cases I've seen in a long time, with all of the RGB fans connected via the model X 4 pin connector, ready to run your RGB light setup with any compatible PSU or motherboard. There's no need for a harness or an adapter. The cable holes allow everything to be run along the side of the case that isn't visible and has openings that line up exactly with the motherboard's plugs, resulting in a very clean Cable Management setup. According to some reviews, the RGB fans on disc cases did not align with the holes in the case's structure. But I guess they worked it out, because I got the revised model with no restrictions on where the fans could go. Overall, this case has a great design and is reasonably priced. It comes with four RGB fans, all of which are connected to a single plug. It also comes with a 4-foot extension cord. The RGB connector is a pin 12 volt RGB connector that works with RGB lights that are powered by the motherboard. This enables you to customize the lighting in your room. Don't be hesitant to purchase this case; the black is a safe bet. This review isn't written by me, but it's extremely sultry. lol. I got it for $60, so hopefully the price won't go up after this review.
